The basics
A wheel has numbered pockets; a ball is spun and lands in one. European roulette has 37 pockets (1-36 and a single 0); American roulette adds a 00 for 38. You bet before the spin on a number, a group of numbers, a colour, odd/even or a range, and winning bets are paid at fixed odds.
Bets and payouts (standard tables)
| Bet | Covers | Pays | Chance (37 pockets) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Straight up | 1 number | 35 to 1 | 1/37 = 2.7% |
| Split | 2 numbers | 17 to 1 | 2/37 = 5.4% |
| Street | 3 numbers | 11 to 1 | 3/37 = 8.1% |
| Corner | 4 numbers | 8 to 1 | 4/37 = 10.8% |
| Dozen or column | 12 numbers | 2 to 1 | 12/37 = 32.4% |
| Red/black, odd/even, high/low | 18 numbers | 1 to 1 | 18/37 = 48.6% |
The house edge
The zero is the casino's edge. A ₱100 straight-up bet on a single-zero wheel: you win ₱3,500 profit 1 time in 37 and lose ₱100 the other 36, an average of (35 − 36) ÷ 37 = −₱2.70, so a 2.70% edge. With the extra 00 the same bet loses on average ₱5.26 per ₱100. Every standard bet has the same edge (the 5-number basket on American wheels is the exception, at about 7.9%); only the variance differs. Prefer single-zero tables when you have a choice.
Systems and mistakes
- Martingale (doubling after a loss): eventually hits a table limit or your balance.
- "Hot" and "cold" numbers: past spins do not affect the next.
- Live roulette on social media: PAGCOR warned in July 2025 that livestreamed gambling there is likely illegal.

Frequently asked questions
What is the house edge in roulette?
On a single-zero (European) wheel with 37 pockets it is 1/37 = 2.70% on every standard bet. On a double-zero (American) wheel with 38 pockets it is 2/38 = 5.26%.
Which roulette bet pays the most?
A straight-up bet on one number pays 35 to 1 on standard tables, and wins 1 time in 37 (single-zero) or 1 in 38 (double-zero). The edge is the same as the other bets.
Can a betting system beat roulette?
No. Each spin is independent, so systems like Martingale change how you lose, not the edge, and run into table limits.
Paano laruin ang roulette?
Tataya ka sa numero, kulay, odd/even o grupo ng numero bago umikot ang gulong; ang bola ay hihinto sa isang bulsa. Ang bayad ay depende sa taya.
